The organisation designs and delivers industry-focused apprenticeship programmes for aspiring pharmacy technicians and support staff, including Level 3 Pharmacy Technician and Level 2 Pharmacy Services Assistant apprenticeships, as well as science-focused routes such as Science Manufacturing Technician (pharmaceutical and biotechnology), Science Manufacturing Process Operative and Laboratory Technician. All programmes combine practical, on-the-job training with structured, tutor-led off-the-job learning, and are delivered flexibly via live online sessions supported by an online portfolio. Skills4Pharmacy emphasises learner support through dedicated account managers, team leaders and GPhC-registered tutors who monitor progress and provide personalised guidance. For employers, the provider positions apprenticeships as a cost-effective way to bridge skills gaps, with government-funded training, recruitment support, and programmes tailored to sector and business needs. In addition to apprenticeships, Skills4Pharmacy, as part of Skills4Group, offers Skills Bootcamps and pharmacy commercial (non-apprenticeship) courses, extending its provision beyond entry-level roles to wider workforce upskilling and leadership development. The organisation reports strong outcomes, including high learner and employer satisfaction rates and a focus on developing both technical competencies and wider skills such as communication, teamwork, problem-solving and digital literacy.
